I'm trying to create a custom table environment that has the following properties:
- It may be very long (i.e., longer than a page) and so I need to use a longtable
- It may (or may not) have long row.
I'm having problems on the long row, this is what I got:
I'm understanding where I'm wrong. \multirow sets a piece of text in a tabular or similar environment, spanning multiple rows. If rows are smaller than a piece of text, we having this problem:

What can I do?
uspdlandheadingsdefined? Is the page style issue even relevant? Hence, please provide more information about your document setup.\multirowto merge multiple rows if it's only one column having more than one row. Instead use something like\begin{tabular}{@{}p{0.145455\linewidth}@{}} First row in that column \\\hline Second row in that column\end{tabular}
